• A plane trip can be a cruisy experience if you take the right gear. First of all you’ll need basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and a good read. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don’t have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your number one priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Layer up in natural fibers and remember to bring a jacket in case it gets cool. Pick roomy, flat shoes as it’s possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your checked luggage.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. But the great news is there are numerous ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and wander the aisles as often as possible and wear compression socks or tights.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be organized before you arrive at airport security. That way, you’ll be boarding that plane to Lajas in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you’ll be back online before you know it.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you’re less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won’t be allowed in the cabin.
